In this video from the Intel User Forum at SC18, Raj Hazra from Intel presents: Our Journey…Accelerating. “This talk highlights the innovations needed at the infrastructure, compute, and programming level to realize the “fourth paradigm.” See how Intel’s unmatched data-centric compute platform, as well as innovations in memory and storage technologies, enable the capabilities needed to meet current and future demands in the convergence of HPC and AI. Uncover performance results across a range of HPC and AI benchmarks and real applications on the recently announced Cascade Lake advanced performance processor including the design win at HLRN.”
Fast Simulation with Generative Adversarial Networks
January 25, 2019 by
In this video from the Intel User Forum at SC18, Dr. Sofia Vallecorsa from CERN openlab presents: Fast Simulation with Generative Adversarial Networks. “This talk presents an approach based on generative adversarial networks (GANs) to train them over multiple nodes using TensorFlow deep learning framework with Uber Engineering Horovod communication library. Preliminary results on scaling of training time demonstrate how HPC centers could be used to globally optimize AI-based models to meet a growing community need.”
